PA24, it looks like they are ganging up on you. I notice that on the "Mike Orlen" thread, I should make sure I have my alarm systems working before I say what I really mean. Obviously, my opinion about barrel raping is not the popular opinion. These guys just like to have their money stripped from their wallets to ruin their gun rather than to learn how to shoot. If I buy a medium to high condition Parker, Lindner, or Purdey with some choke in the barrels, it is a duck or pheasant gun. Only an idiot would think it should be their next ideal skeet or woodcock gun. The strange thing is that most of these guys have dozens of woodcock and skeet guns. Why does the latest acquisition have to be another woodcock or skeet gun? OK, it's their money, but it doesn't make sense except that a guy with a bunch of money can do what he wants with it, including ruining a good gun or hiring someone to take out.....
